*UPDATE: Hans Van Eegen is sending out e-mails asking Dharma recruits to go take Test 2. You can view the e-mail HERE. There seems to be a message in the source code hinting at the "cheat" (*Thanks Codysmom for pointing that out in comments.) or just showing someone's displeasure with Dharma. Could this be from RuckusGuy? Is he the one giving us these cheats?

Head over to Dharma Wants You and take Test 2. You may take the test as many times as you like, but only your first score will be counted. You will not be told your results upon completion, and there is a cheat this time as well.

We are being put into three groups this time around: Steropes, Brontes, or Polyphemus, which are all names of cyclops.

Yes Happy Birthday Chucklez!!I just took the test. I'm in Poloyphemus group now.Then I come here and find out there's another cheat. To late now the site says it only takes th first test. Ah well. Or maybe the cheat negates that. hmmmm

Hi Dennis, I've signed up everyone I know and then some. I have 310 Dharma Points and working on getting more. I'm in Ganymede Group and Bronte ( I think that's what it was) My first score on Test 1 was 79 before cheat and after cheat was 99 so yes, I did use it. I also used the cheat on test 2 because people are finding that it seems we should cheat. There is code in the flash file looking to see if we cheat so I will be cheating the whole time.

I was placed in Polyphemus and I used the cheat for the last question. I think I'll be scrubbing toilets for the DI because I don't feel like I did that well on the test.

The questions I believe I answered correctly on were the ones that had to do with the Arts. Perhaps the groups are determined in that manner. Some were science, some were geography, and some were arts related.

Ok I took the test before I came here - I didn't use the cheat, even though I made note of the clue. I'm in Polyphemus.So much for the moons theory? I can't find anything about any moons being called Polyphemus.I can't remember all my questions, but I also had the carpal bones one.There was one asking about Irish geography, one about impressionist art, and that's all I can think of right now.

Also, if the cheat or the clue is "I C", "I See", or "Eye See" and the groups are all cyclops... well not so good for Polyphemus considering Odysseus and his men shove a hot stake into his eye and blind him. YIKES! After which they completely hoodwink him by hiding under sheep and escaping. So perhaps our group "doesn't see"!

the reason for me wanting to 100% this test is just to se the difference it makes in the long run, I got 100% on the first test with the cheat, and I plan to cheat on all tests and complete them to the highest score possible.

The real question is does cheating work for or against you as far as the DI is concerned? I guess it also depends on what you want to wind up doing for them.

Cheaters may become DI cops or forensic experts. After all, since they are good at figuring out how to cheat, they are probably good at identifying potential cheaters (or other types of miscreants) ;-).

Well, I took the test and I'm now a Steropes (which is another Cyclops). I'm sure I did terrible on it...didn't know most of the answers. I didn't write them down as I did them, but here are the ones I vaguely remember:The meaning of the name Iwo Jima.Father of HeraclesLargest island in the Baltic Sea.Something about a past perfect verb.What sense is olafactory?I got The Factory artist question.

me too, matthew haywood. I have two accounts. One I'm totally cheating on and the other I'm not. I have to say, it is more fun not to cheat because I can keep taking test one and trying to better my score. There's no point to trying to better my 100% on my cheater's acct.

Some questions from test 2 (but I haven't looked up the answers yet):

-what organ does a deer NOT have:a) pancreasb) liverc) small intestined) gall bladder

-which is a noun used as an adjective in this, "bean soup and bread"a) beanb) soupc) andd) bread

Checking in, but don't have a lot of time. Took the test, figured the cheat, although I was hitting "i" with all the questions, then it became clear on Question 10. Anyway, skimmed the comments, I'll try to remember and post my questions later. I'm in polyphemus now too. What is the meaning of all these tests with built in cheats?

I looked over at dark's, too. So many questions. I don't think I'll ever be able to know everything... hopefully the cheat will be enough to put me in the cheat catagory for my first acct., because I don't think I could ever get all the questions right. Maybe there's another cheat.... I'll be patient.. lol

matthew H, I got a terrible score first time, too! probably worse than yours... lol

Lisa said... unfortunately, the questions change each time you take the test so unless you write down every question someone has and then look up all the answers, it won't help waiting to take the test.

That's what I'm trying to do :)

It requires a group effort however - I can't do it all myself. If everyone pitches in and takes the test - log out if you don't want it to count - and types up their 9 questions, then maybe we can get a list of all the correct answers.

That's great DarkUFO is already doing it too. Does someone have a link to their questions?

Hello every1, IM BACK!!!Yes, its true, knowing nothing would happen till wed here in europe I kinda got a bit disconnected. But no more!heheheGlad to see the BSWY myspace page is up (Im making u my friend ;P)Took test two after he cheat was discovered, googled about two questions, thought it was ok. My main account got assigned to polyphemus, and my BSWY to Brontes.Mmmm, what else...well Polyphemus is ALSO THE NAME OF A MOTH!!!

@lost2010 actually I cheated on both accounts and got "C" but on the first I went from ganymedes to polyphemus and on the second from pandora to brontes...so I doubt it!Maybe only the way we answered one particular question + the cheat at the end matters (For example, its not a theory or anything)

emeraldislost, yes, I'm afraid that is true about only the first test score counts on all these... maybe that's where the patience thing comes in. We should wait until "others" have found all we need to know.

At this point, I think that the groups we're "placed" in are totally random. Nothing seems to make much sense. And I don't think it's so important to do well on the tests...for whatever is coming at DWY, everyone will be able to be involved no matter how well they scored or what group they're in.

I feel like the cheat we currently know about can't be the only cheat. Time seems to be a strong theme, and maybe there is some way to make it seem like you never took the test at all or even go back to previous questions or something. Maybe I'm just giving Hoodlum too much credit...

How about this? You go as fast as you can thru the questions (maybe they don't count) and you use the cheat on the last one. Would this be what the DI is looking for? After all, the whole DDWY site is only interesting because of the cheats (and the fact that they want to recruit as many people as possible).

codysmom said...emeraldislost, yes, I'm afraid that is true about only the first test score counts on all these... maybe that's where the patience thing comes in. We should wait until "others" have found all we need to know.

Maybe that IS it- what was it that the email said? "patience is bitter" and the rest of the saying says something like the fruit is good- or something like that. I guess the point is to not take the tests the second they come out, but wait until someone finds a cheat, find out the answers and then take the test and do well. Maybe the "best" recruits will be the ones who wait,use all the knowledge from other players and then take the tests. Of course, who's gonna volunteer to be the guinea pigs if we all wait? Better start spying on other blogs. ;)

Did you ever do one of those tests to see how well you follow directions? The last question states: Don't answer any of the questions... this was just a test to see if you read all the directions before you start... or something like that:)

I was looking at Dark's list of questions and he had this one. What word means to think about something and then do it on purpose He only had A.B.C.D. as an answer. Does that mean he doesn't have the answers or that was his choices for an anwer?Because I had that question and mine had answers. I just can't remember what they were.

I am in the Steropes group this time, I am pretty good with wht I call useless knowledge. But who knows it could all be very arbitrary. Has anyone found anything in the code of the site that would distinguish what group you are in? Should be in there somewhere. I know Rexhector is trying to hack into it. Go Team Lena!!

Sterope (Greek: Στερόπη , στεροπή steropê lightning) was the name of several individuals in Greek mythology:

* Sterope, daughter of Pleuron and Xanthippe * Sterope, daughter of Porthaon and Euryte, sometimes said to be the mother of the Sirens by Achelous * Sterope (or Asterope), one of the Pleiades and the wife of Oenomaus (or his mother by Ares); see also Asterope (star) * Sterope, daughter of Cepheus, the king of Tegea, who received a lock of Medusa's hair from Heracles to protect her hometown, Tegea from attack, thus winning Heracles' friendship for her father * Sterope, daughter of Acastus and either Astydameia or Hippolyte * Sterope, one of the horses of Helios * Sterope, one of the Maenads * Steropes, one of the Cyclopes

damn. didnt wait... just ploughed straight into it answered them as fast as i could. judging by the answers coming in i reckon i got about 60% correct...makes me a cyclops, either that or my name is ann emily or charlotte...:@)

In the Theogony, the Cyclopes – Arges,[3] Brontes, and Steropes – were the primordial sons of Uranus (Sky) and Gaia (Earth) and brothers of the Hecatonchires. They were giants with a single eye in the middle of their forehead and a foul disposition. According to Hesiod, they were strong, stubborn, and "abrupt of emotion". Collectively they eventually became synonyms for brute strength and power, and their name was invoked in connection with massive masonry. They were often pictured at their forge.

Wow, you guys are amazing....about waiting, well since I am in Europe the tests come out while Im still off in dream land so when I log in (for example today) I get info on them quite quickly. I read about the cheat and thought about waiting for the questions to be answered before taking the test but honestly that didnt feel as much fun...ok, I was sick of waiting, I admit it!Anyways, Im still on the fence about the groups and their significance...only thing I found interesting is that polyphemes is the name of a kind of MOTH. mmmmmSpent the afternoon "dusting" my myspace page. Haven't gone there in over two years!!!Lots of updating to do!BTW, thanks again Dennis for all the hard work. Welcome all new BSns.

Fantastic work on compiling the list of Q&A's, you brave souls. No wonder it took two weeks to get this ARG started.The surviving savants were in a back room,making up these tests, and typing as fast as humanly possible.

CodysmomI think I went too fast,because I rushed the last one instead of thinking about(i).I got about half right in hindsight.I took it a number of times after that to see how many questions I could answer.Of course only the first one counted.

I just got an e-mail from Hans telling me to go take Test 2. LOL a little too late Mr. Van Eeghen!

It is very specific about the test guidelines though, and I don't see anything in the source code that jumps out. Maybe this line: name="Alert" content="The Dharma Initiative - Guiding the World to a Bitter Tomorrow - BS"

He guys this is kind of old news but since Black Swan is being talked about again I thought I post this thought.I've been keeping notes on the game for reference points and somehow deleted them and can't find them. Anyway I've been going back over the old post and Maven said this...This is all I took away from the Black Swan Theory:

In Nassim Nicholas Taleb's definition, a black swan is a large-impact, hard-to-predict, and rare event beyond the realm of normal expectations. Taleb regards many scientific discoveries as black swans—"undirected" and unpredicted. He gives the rise of the Internet, the personal computer, the first world war, as well as the September 11, 2001 attacks as examples of Black Swan events.

And codysmom said this...Last night I put in a link to:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counterfactual_history

which I found while reading about the Black Swan Theory. Counterfactual history "seeks to explore history and historical incidents by means of extrapolating a timeline in which certain key historical events did not happen or had an outcome which was different from that which did in fact occur." I'm wondering if this is what the DI wants to do; to find a key historical event and change it by using their time-travel abilities?So I am agreeing with these two ladies.I think the large impact hard to predict and rare event beyond the realm of normal expctation is Time Travel.And that Chang wants to use this to change the history of the purge.Still not sure what involement we recruits will have in this yet though.

i don't get what this new source code sentence is a about?? anyone else understand the importance of this that could explain it to me? i don't get how its supposed to be alluding to the cheat, either, but there we go.

someone said something about the 4 toed statue being a cyclops; i read yesterday, think it was at dark, that this has already been theorised before, as cyclops are sometimes said to have 4 toes on one foot and 3 toes on the other. so i think that maybe its likely; a good guess.

ahh never mind i get the source code message now; just being slow haha. what a stupid message, can't they give us something more important; that leads somewhere?! getting seriously bored of the lack of stuff going on...

would be funny ANM, hehehehe. don't think its the case though, somehow. could be more than we think, though; thats the second time 'Ruckusguy' has used 'BS' in his communications with us. and the second time for 'Bitter.' More of a message in there somewhere??

Could be...at this point things dont seem to connect in any way so its hard to tell wheteher we should keep looking for clues or take these messages at face value...well Im off to lunch, be back in a breeze!

Okay, did this happen to anyone else? I wanted to preview the test before I took it, so I took Test 2 without signing in. When I was done, I signed in, and clicked on My Progress - and I had a score registered for Test 2! It said the test was completed and I was in Brontes. How is that possible? Or fair? :)

melissa_lossaSorry you had that happen to you. I took the test without logging in because I was in a rush to do it and forgot. I figured my test wouldn't count and was kind of upset because I figured the next test would probably be harder. So I checked my progress and it counted.Which means if the first try on the first test counted too I got a terrible score before the cheat. And I didn't cheat on this one because I didn't know it had another cheat in it. Didn't stop to think about it.

Anonymous said... Wow....guys did one of us do the whole "DI guiding us to a BItter tomorrow-BI"!!!!!That would be awesome!

Wouldn't it, though? Whoever is putting these things in the source codes should get hold of Black Swan group. They would certainly fit right in:) In fact, that's why I made the myspace.... a place they could contact us.

capcom, thanks for the info on the use of the word "grow" in the business world

thrasher76, you're in!

EmeraldIsLost said... oh and btw; how desperate do the DI sound from that email to get more recruits?!!?

No kidding! Maybe we're SUPPOSED to get mad at the new DI recruitment... I know I am... Why would they need so many people? If it was Mittlewerk, he'd say so they can weed out 30% to kill them for their virus!

Getting back to that Counterfactual history thing that I found while researching "Black Swan", it is all hypothetical research since nobody can actually go back in time and change things in reality.

BUT if you had the ability to time travel, you could do it for real. That's why I thought it might tie in with all this. It could also be a reason for the new DI needing so many people. They may need us to be the ones to "change history" (and thus change the factors of the valenzetti equation), but whoops... that try didn't work... we'll just leave them back in time and go get more people to give it another shot. They would love a huge number of people to be able to try over and over again.

Have a great Holiday weekend Codysmom, & everyone else.Codysmom,your Black Swan my space page is looking great.I think by now Hans must be walking around with a piece of paper stuck on his back, that says HACK ME.

You know, there is a little statistical thought which will be interesting to play out over the course of this.

We were all grouped together after the first test. Then split 50/50 after the second. And then split into (roughly) additional thirds (giving 6 groups) with the third.

If you carry this out and just do a simple linear distribution on a population of 2000 people, by the time we get through 10 tests, the "groups" would only have four people each.

THAT could be kind of interesting.

The way we may know if that is where the path is leading is: if after the next test, there are four possible sub-groups and we are all evenly distributed within them. Then we could surmise that the process may continue that way through the remainder of the tests.

yeah that's normal 2costa. you have to take test 1 then click on the button that says recruit a friend (or something like that) then the friend has to take the first test and then sign up to get a profile for you to get 10 points. It's 10 points per friend that you get to sign up and take the tests

Does Hoodlum not understand anything about momentum? It's really going to be hard to hold the attention of people for 5 months going at this pace. Hopefully they have more up their sleeve or else I'm just going to wait until December and take all the tests at once. ;O
